F1 2015 - F1

And yet Lewis Hamilton remains a 3 time & the current World Champion.

 

No question Nico is having a storing end to his season, I wonder where all this driving enthusiasm was earlier in the year?

And what happened to Vettel? It looked like he just quit mid lap, engine sounded fine, transmission sounded fine......

If he had a mechanical, it will be fun to see him tearing thru the field again.....

 

I wonder the same thing about Nico. To be fair he did throw a blistering Quali lap down.

Vettel was just strange. Maybe we will know more tomorrow. When they asked him about his aborted lap he didn't look the interviewer in the eye. Body language told me he was not telling the truth.

 

Another shootout looms at this years Durka-Durka Grand Prix. Can't wait until tomorrow.

Even with being "hamstrung" with an old motor, Rosberg still owns Hamilton in Abu Dhabi!!

Finishes season with three wins in a row!

Would like to personally thank Lewis for throwing the hat at Nico four races ago, well done bro!

 

Cool to see a Buckeye up on the podium!

 

Nico drove a good race, congrats to him.

Hopefully 3 time & current F1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton will come out swinging next year & get a 4th championship. Will Nico be able to be 2nd best again? Time will tell.

 

Hey Niki, Lewis needs his diaper changed again...lol

I'm sure next year he will have a big smile yet again when he beats Nico for the F1 World Championship yet again. :smilewinkgrin:

 

If next years is a repeat of the last 2 years I might be done with F1 after 30 years of following and watching.

 

Multiple reasons to watch next season:

1. Can Nico can drive this well when it counts (not after the championship has already been won)?
2. Will Vettel continue to be funny, likable, and poke fun at both Lewis and Nico or will he slowly turn back into the a$$ he was at Red Bull?
3. US team back in the mix
4. Who will Red Bull blame if things don't get better (I'm assuming that it will still be Renault)?
5. The maturation of Mad Max

 

All very good reasons to continue watching F1. It is not what it once was, but it's still racing & for me that is enough to continue to watch Bernie's circus on wheels.

 

How about watching to see if McLaren/Honda can compete.

 

Such a colossal waste of talent and money this season....they have no where but up to go...

 

I'm really sad for McLaren. But more so for both of their driver's. I'm hoping for a minor miracle. :fingerscrossed:

 

The engine regs are insane, why would a new manufacturer want to get in if they know they can't revamp their own stuff if it's going wrong. This has been a big black eye to Honda....not to mention Renault.

 

Guys....do a little research about when Honda first came to F1, similar story.

 

I don't feel too sorry for the drivers
